RSS, Wikis and Social Networking explained simply

Posted July 1st 2007 @ 10:36 am by Kathryn Greenhill

The clips below, produced by Lee and Sachi LeFever of Commoncraft , take less than 10 minutes to watch and explain RSS, Wikis and Social Networking more clearly than any other resource I’ve found.

Lee LeFever explains the stylistic decisions they made for the clips and why the constraints they chose give them freedom to focus on the ideas rather than formatting for each one,Why Paperworks: All About Constraints .

Very useful if you either want to explain these concepts to other library colleagues or are making decisions about presenting your ideas online.

Enjoy!

    we love these videos. Here in Newington CT at Lucy Robbins Welles library we are teaching our staff about Library 2.0, and are using these videos in some of the lessons. they are funny, easy to understand and explain the basics perfectly.
